Very interesting shot Dumay! Tack sharp with a great background and I love the pose. It would have been nice if the eye would have been pointing out at the viewer (...but I've found these birds don't always take directions so well )

Excellent detail mate, and I like how the darter has formed a circle with his neck. This is extremely sharp. I also like the complimentary BG.

[James Salywoda]

Awesome pose captured and very sharp well done.

[Pieter de Waal]

Excellent detail, sharp with nice pose.
